The show recently changed its format so that people who win are allowed to come back the next day, so the longest one ever just happened to have been set the week before - they took part in eleven episodes. We certainly weren't the best ones ever, partly due to our own ability to find the correct words even when many letters are given, and partly due to luck playing a significant role in the actual game. (I didn't go into the luck-based elements in the post, because our strategy couldn't influence that.)
